Looking further into this, systemd-fsck simply runs
"fsck -l". The "-l" option is supposed to create a lock for the whole
disk device.

Might be, that util-linux's fsck -l does not properly deal with LVM on
top of software RAID.

CCed Karel, maybe he can comment on this.


Daniel, which version of util-linux do you have installed?
